Zara Tindall is fast becoming one of the best dressed members of of the Royal Family, showing off an array of outfits from tailored dresses to fitted coats in trending hot pink hues. 

Where she used to dazzle us with eclectic mini frocks and fun fascinators over the years, she has now refined her style aesthetic towards chic and figure-flattering silhouettes.

Often known as the rebellious royal in the past, Zara still loves vibrant hues. But these days she loves clean lines, using accessories to add personality.

Neither her husband, Mike, nor her mother, the Princess Royal, has ever paid much attention to the whims of fashion but Zara is growing in confidence. 

Not that she’s trying to be a trendsetter. Rather, it seems she wants to concentrate on dressing beautifully.

Australian-born fashion stylist Annie Miall has been credited with helping Zara – notably in the choice of sharply cut, figure-skimming pieces  by designers such as Rebecca Vallance and Laura Green, who spent ten years at Princess Diana’s favourite brand, Catherine Walker.

Zara has definitely found her fashion formula.
